Chapter 27: I Don't Even Know How Thick My Face Is!
To completely retain all the members of the Hand and the Kingpin's Gang.
Quietly running around the docks, Qi Jun re-examined all the originally laid detonators and explosives.
As for how Qi Jun knew how to assemble explosives? Naturally, it was because of the "Firearms Mastery Skill Book" that it was included. Although it was just a bit of what Big Daddy taught Hit-Girl about the principles of firearms and gunpowder, those memories were enough for Qi Jun to use.
To solidify the victory, Qi Jun extravagantly spent a few remaining energy points to materialize several remote detonators controlled by Qi Jun's thoughts.
Because!
During this second check and the addition of detonators and explosives, Qi Jun discovered a pile of containers filled with crude oil!
The containers were marked with the words "Sports Equipment"?
This pile of crude oil was also smuggled in, but it was unknown who the owner of this crude oil was. Why put these crude oils here?
Of course, Qi Jun didn't care about these and even wanted to kill...
This discovery scared Qi Jun, not lightly.
Qi Jun thought that by having the Golden Finger, he would thrive in this world. However, he didn't expect that a seemingly ordinary place could potentially be his deathbed.
If it hadn't been for Qi Jun's careful inspection of the docks and the smell of these pungent odors, Qi Jun would have no idea how he died.
With Qi Jun's Golden Finger [Mutated Stone], the information passed to Qi Jun by the [Mutated Stone], its passive effect, would not resurrect Qi Jun, who was already smashed into foam.
Moreover, if these containers filled with crude oil were accidentally affected, let alone foam, Qi Jun wouldn't even have ashes left!
But also because of this, Qi Jun had a bolder idea!
.............
Of course, while Qi Jun was checking his traps, he discovered that those 'suspected mercenaries' quietly emerged from the previously hidden dark places.
Following them, Qi Jun naturally noticed the strong military discipline of this group.
Not a single person spoke, completely silent, moving silently and commanding forward with gestures.
Soon, the group dispersed, each heading towards their destinations in stealth.
This group had already familiarized themselves with and remembered the location of the docks.
.............
Very happily following behind a part of the mercenaries, Qi Jun effortlessly recovered the Kingpin's Gang members whose necks were silently taken out by them.
If these mercenaries looked back, they would discover that the bodies of the Kingpin Gang members they had previously decapitated had eerily vanished without a trace!
Qi Jun never expected such good fortune!
I am picking up energy without any pressure at all!
Qi Jun says he wouldn't mind a few more instances of such good fortune!
But Qi Jun had yet to notice.
Tiny pinhole cameras recorded these eerie and terrifying scenes in many dark corners.
...
At the S.H.I.E.L.D. Headquarters, the Triskelion, in the command center.
"What's going on?"
"Since when do we need to report gangsters trading 'laundry powder' to headquarters for handling?"
"Have you forgotten what our organization's duty is? Are you all a bunch of idiots who don't use their brains for thinking?"
The current Director of S.H.I.E.L.D., Nick Fury, who had been quietly watching the Hulk as Bruce Banner, sprinting northward on the projection screen, became furious when the screen suddenly switched to two gangs trading and a third party preparing for a double-cross. The Nick Fury immediately transformed into a raging storm, berating the operators in the command center!
"I think you should take a closer look at those highlighted scenes, Director!"
While everyone else was shivering and dared not retort, a neatly dressed lady, unafraid of Nick Fury's rant, spoke lightly yet emphatically.
Naturally, in the hall that had become extremely quiet due to Nick Fury's scolding, it was impossible not to hear the lady's voice, especially since they were not far from each other.
"Hmm?"
Nick Fury, clearly hearing the lady's voice, immediately ceased his tirade and looked back at the projected scenes.
This time, focusing on the highlighted scenes, Nick Fury instantly noticed something was amiss.
The gang members silently killed off by a rival gang were all eerily disappearing without a trace!
And it wasn't a slow disappearance but a bizarrely instantaneous vanishing! In one frame, they were there, and in the next, they had completely disappeared!
"A brand-new superpower incident!"
Nick Fury confirmed with conviction.
A face already too dark to see any expression showed no sign of embarrassment for having scolded the wrong person earlier.
"Thank you, Deputy Director Hill!"
Nick Fury turned to the neatly dressed lady and said, then immediately turned back, staring intently at the projected scenes, silently pondering.
The lady known as Hill didn't say much nor respond to Nick Fury, but she also looked solemnly at the projected scenes, not worried about facing any repercussions from Nick Fury.
Of course, Hill had been planted in S.H.I.E.L.D. by the World Security Council.
Deputy Director of S.H.I.E.L.D., Maria Hill, had already prepared a 'vibranium heart' before taking office, fearless of any backlash!
"Dispatch the nearest Level 7 agent in that area to check and investigate at the fastest speed!" Nick Fury commanded calmly.
And Maria Hill didn't show any reaction, just frowning slightly:
Why have more and more superpower incidents been popping up worldwide after playboy Tony Stark revealed his identity as Iron Man?
Unable to find an answer, Maria Hill couldn't help but feel that such incidents were likely to become increasingly common!
...
Good fortune did not always favor this group of mercenaries.
Soon, the activities of the mercenaries were discovered by patrolling members of the Kingpin Gang.
In an instant, gunfire roared nonstop!
